Option 1: Release binary (recommended)

Download the pre-built binary for your OS and architecture from GitHub Releases, then add it to your PATH.

macOS / Linux:

# Download and make executable (replace VERSION and ARCH as needed)
chmod +x advncd
sudo mv advncd /usr/local/bin/advncd

Windows: Download the .exe, place it in a directory that's on your PATH.

Verify the install:

advncd --version

Option 2: Build from source

Requires Go 1.21+.

git clone https://github.com/ADVNCD-Cloud/advncd-cli.git
cd advncd-cli
go build -o advncd .

Move the resulting binary to your PATH, or run it directly as ./advncd.
